What we need at the venue

We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. These are the things we check:

  • A short, clear path for carrying the bar in
  • A parking or loading spot near the serving area
  • Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking

In Hadley Wood, as everywhere in Greater London, the ULEZ applies and kerb space is limited. Where will the truck or trailer stop? A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.

About our taco bar hire in Hadley Wood

You choose the fillings with us, such as pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, plus a vegan choice such as spiced mushroom or black bean and sweet potato. It suits team lunches and garden parties, serving pickled onions and toppings, burrito bowls and guacamole.

In a London neighbourhood like Hadley Wood, a taco bar is handy when the truck can’t reach the garden or the room. We set up a station staffed by our team, where guests build their own tacos. We still need to park and unload close by, so tell us about loading bays, permits or a parking suspension. Like all of Greater London, Hadley Wood is inside the ULEZ. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

Why choose taco bar hire in Hadley Wood?

The difference between a taco bar and truck service is who builds the taco. At the hatch, we make each order; at the taco bar, guests do the building. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.

Why book with us

  • Options for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests
  • We cover Hadley Wood and the whole of Greater London
  • Access, space and power checked in advance
  • Fast service, even with a queue

How it works

On the day, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. We’re ready to serve at the agreed time, so everything runs to your schedule. Daylight in Hadley Wood runs to about 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. If the taco bar is outdoors and runs later, tell us what lighting the venue has.

  1. Start with your date, venue and guest numbers.
  2. Together we choose what goes on the bar.
  3. The venue confirms where the bar goes and where we park.
  4. Our staff set out the bar and guests build their own tacos.
  5. We clear the bar away after service.

Before we arrive

  • Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
  • Share the running order, including any speeches
  • Ask the venue about power and water

Hadley Wood questions

Could you serve in Tudor Sports Ground?

Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.

Could you serve our guests after a service at St Paul's Church?

Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.

How much does taco bar hire cost?

We quote for each taco bar, based on numbers, fillings, the venue and timings. For a price, fill in our quote form.

Do you do a taco bar?

Yes. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Read our taco bar guide.

What do you need at the venue?

Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.

Are plates and napkins included?

Please ask us. Tell us what your venue provides, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.

How long are you on site?

We arrive in good time to set up before service. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.

What affects the price in Hadley Wood

Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:

  • Travel, parking and access
  • Timings and hours
  • Plates, napkins and cutlery
  • How many guests we’re serving

Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Details that help

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • Gate widths, slopes and the ground
  • The date and rough timings
  • Diets and allergies you know about
  • The venue or postcode

Still deciding on the menu? No problem: give us the basics about your event, and we will suggest a menu. To start, send us your details through our quote form.

DIY taco night or a caterer?

Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

About the menu

Vegan fillings

Spiced mushroom, or black bean and sweet potato.

Hot fillings

A few fillings give guests plenty of choice, including a vegan one. We agree them with you.

Planning for every diet

Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:

  • Confirm any allergies to us by email
  • Ask the venue where we can park to unload
  • Ask guests about diets and allergies on the RSVP
  • Put guests with serious allergies in touch with us early

We warm tortillas in batches and keep the fillings hot, so the bar stays fresh from the first plate to the last.

Extra salsas, from mild to hot, let guests choose their own heat.

  • Served from our truck or trailer at your venue, garden or event
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with allergen information
  • Tacos and taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas
  • Mexican drinks bar: margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas
